You’ll also need to influence other parts of the business to demonstrate the value of well thought-through marketing and strategy application.

Aside from the opportunity to take us on the integration journey, you’ll be part of a larger marketing team that truly values customer data and leveraging it to deliver the best solution for the customer. You'll also get to work with a relational GM of Marketing who really cares about and empowers people.

With access to sick leave from Day 1, annual flu shots, I Am Here mental health and wellbeing platform and training, and our EAP service, you’ll know your health and wellbeing are right up front and centre.

You'll also be rewarded with:

  • Genuine hybrid working environment (3 days onsite, 2 from home)
  • Opportunity to purchase up to 2 additional weeks of annual leave
  • Family-friendly shutdown periods over Christmas and Easter
  • An exclusive Farmlands shareholding opportunity providing access to a vast array of discounts with our Farmlands Card Partners
